Classify material properties
Grade 2 students classify materials by their observable properties in this Physical Science worksheet, sorting everyday objects by characteristics such as texture, hardness, flexibility, and transparency. Teachers can use it as a hands-on complement to a materials unit, encouraging students to observe before they classify. Building the habit of using evidence to sort and categorize is a cornerstone of scientific thinking at this level.
Learning objectives
- Identify observable properties of common materials
- Classify materials into categories based on shared physical properties
- Justify classification choices using evidence from observations
